1958 Map of Bashbish Falls

About this map

Bash Bish Falls State Forest marks the meeting point of three states in this 1958 survey, where the Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New York borders converge amidst a dramatic vertical landscape. The terrain is defined by a chain of peaks including Mt Everett, Bear Mtn, and Brace Mtn, dropping sharply toward the eastern valley. This lower elevation supports the small settlements of Joyceville, Hammertown, and Taconic, which are connected by the tracks of the Penn Central railroad.
